Abstract

Various approaches to the modeling of metal and radionuclide interactions with macromolecular ligands, proteins, polysaccharides and humic substances in particular, their chemical and sorption equilibria, and the techniques used for their investigation are concisely compared. To predict radionuclide mobility in the natural and semi-natural aqueous environment, the estimation of the effective interaction constants, related to specific species of polyelectrolytes which are linked with the absorbancy or absorbancy ratio in their electronic absorption spectra, should probably be preferred and developed as standard. For characterization of the binding sites of specific molecular forms of polyelectrolyte ligands, the Scatchard plot analysis at macroconcentrations of the metal and also, though not so effectively, the two-phase distribution at trace concentrations of radionuclide or metal can be applied.
